Chapter 135: No Peace
Long Chen gently injected a trace of warm soul power into Ye Lingling's forehead.
However, Ye Lingling was still sleeping, as if she was in a deep dream, unaware of everything in the outside world.
Seeing this, Dugu Bo comforted him: "Don't worry, she just consumed too much soul power and needs to rest. It's not safe here, we have to go."
Long Chen nodded and gently picked up Ye Lingling.
The group quickly left the battlefield just now, and under the leadership of Dugu Bo, they came to a hidden cave.
It seemed unusually quiet here, without the noise of soul beasts, only the sound of natural wind and the gurgling of streams not far away.
"Let's rest here for a while, and when Lingling wakes up, we will go back to Sunset Forest."
Dugu Bo said, and walked into the cave first and found a relatively dry place to sit down.
Long Chen carefully placed Ye Lingling aside, letting her lean against his arms, and using his body temperature to give her a little warmth.
After an unknown amount of time, Ye Lingling's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her clear eyes.
When she saw Long Chen's worried and gentle eyes, a warm current surged in her heart, and her face unconsciously flushed.
This was the first time since she grew up that she was so close to Long Chen and could feel his breathing and heartbeat.
Seeing Ye Lingling wake up, Long Chen smiled slightly and said softly: "Lingling, you're awake."
Ye Lingling sat up, her face slightly red.
"Brother Chen, where is this? How long have I slept?"
"We are still in the Star Dou Great Forest, and you only slept for two hours."
At this time, Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan also came over after hearing the sound.
Dugu Yan asked with concern:
"Lingling is awake, are you okay?"
Ye Lingling shook her head gently.
"I'm fine now, thank you all."
Dugu Bo's expression became solemn.
"Yu Luomian escaped, and what happened here will soon spread. We killed several Blue Lightning Tyrant disciples and several members of the Breaking clan and the clan leader Yang Wudi, which offended the Blue Lightning Tyrant clan and the Breaking clan. Those two clans will definitely not let it go and will come to seek revenge on us."
Long Chen also thought of this and suggested: "Yu Luomian may release news to retaliate against us, saying that there is an Immortal Herb in the Star Dou Great Forest, attracting various forces to fight for it.
Fortunately, Yang Wudi is dead, and there is one less person in the world who knows about the Immortal Herb. Then we will use their tricks against them and set up a poison array in the Star Dou Great Forest to mislead them."
Dugu Bo heard this, and the corner of his mouth curled up a smile, and nodded in agreement.
"This is a good idea, leave it to me."
Around the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes of the Sunset Forest, there is a green scale snake poison array set up by Dugu Bo.
With that poison, ordinary soul masters dare not approach.
Long Chen knew that Yang Wudi had a younger brother, Yang Wushuang.
He also knew about the Immortal Herb.
When the Spirit Hall was besieging the Clear Sky Sect, the Breaking Clan, as a subsidiary sect, was implicated.
Later, Yang Wushuang was captured by the Spirit Hall.
In order to ensure that the formula of the Breaking Clan's poison would not be leaked, Yang Wushuang bit his tongue to commit suicide, but failed.
He is still controlled by the Spirit Hall.
Although Yu Luomian is a member of the Blue Lightning Tyrant family, he secretly colluded with the Spirit Hall in order to conspire for the position of clan leader.
If he revealed the matter of the Immortal Herb to Bibi Dong, Bibi Dong might send Elder Yue Guan or coerce Yang Wushuang to come and find the Immortal Herb.
In any case, the Star Dou Great Forest will no longer be peaceful.
Dugu Bo suddenly asked: "Xiaochen, has your soul power improved?"
"Well, it has increased by two levels, and now it is level 69."
"What about the soul ring, has there been any changes?" Long Chen shook his head.
"No."
"It's just like what I thought. It's normal that there is no soul ring. It's not that simple to transform from a thousand-year soul ring to a ten-thousand-year soul ring. At this stage, it's already very good to be able to increase soul power by two levels."
In the previous battle, Dugu Bo could have killed Yang Wudi directly after petrifying him.
However, thinking that Long Chen could increase his strength by devouring him, he gave Long Chen the opportunity.
Long Chen was also very grateful for what Dugu Bo did for him.
"Brother Bo, thank you."
Dugu Bo smiled.
"We are brothers. Why are you being polite to me? According to the speed at which your soul power is increasing, it won't take long to break through level 70. With the seventh soul ring, you can release the weapon soul body, and your overall strength will be greatly improved."
"Well, I will break through as soon as possible."
Long Chen thought of Ye Tianming and his wife, and couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"Brother Bo, Uncle Ye and Auntie may be retaliated by them. I want to go back to Tiandou City and take them to the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire for a while. Is that okay?"
Dugu Bo nodded in agreement.
"After this incident, their situation will indeed become dangerous. Those people may find the Sunset Forest in the future. With the two of them, we have two more helpers. Go ahead and be careful on the road."
Hearing that she could reunite with her parents, Ye Lingling's eyes flashed with excitement.
"Brother Chen, I'll go with you."
Long Chen shook his head gently.
"No, Lingling, you just woke up, it's not suitable for you to rush around. You go back to the Yin-Yang Eye with Brother Bo and Yanzi, so I can feel more at ease. I will come back as soon as possible and take my uncle and aunt to meet you there."
"Okay, then you be careful, I'll wait for you to come back."
"Don't worry, nothing will happen."
After arranging everything, Long Chen set out on the road back to Tiandou City alone.
Dugu Bo took Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling to the Sunset Forest.
On the other side.
The fleeing Yu Luomian caught up with Yu Tianheng, his eyes full of shock.
"Second Grandfather, how are you?"
"Tianheng, don't worry, I'm fine."
Recalling the thrilling battle before, especially Long Chen's horrifying devouring ability, Yu Luomian's heart was still difficult to calm down.
Not seeing Yang Wudi, Yu Tianheng had a bad premonition.
"Second Grandfather, where is Yang Wudi?"
"He is dead. I saw him being devoured by the phantom of the alien beast controlled by Long Chen. That evil guy was like a demon from hell."
Yu Tianheng heard the words and his face changed.
Long Chen's devouring ability once again exceeded his imagination. Even a Soul Douluo-level soul master like Yang Wudi could not be spared.
Yu Luomian took a deep breath and tried to calm down his emotions.
"Tianheng, this is not a place to talk. We have to leave as soon as possible."
Yu Tianheng and the other two left the Star Dou Great Forest and came to a safe place.
Thinking of everything he had experienced in the forest, Yu Luomian felt very unwilling.
"Tian Heng, I am sure there must be Immortal Herbs in the Star Dou Great Forest. Otherwise, that old poisonous creature Dugu Bo would not have guarded that area so desperately. Although our operation failed this time, we cannot give up just like that!"
